I use a locally produced raw shea butter to pretty good effect. I can try digging it out -- I haven't needed to use it this year, what with the mild weather -- and see who the maker is.

all these people who are complaining about perfumes making them sick clearly just "don't like" the smells and are trying to take away others' right to wear whatever they please.

Oh that sort of thinking pisses me right off, because it's close to the sort of thinking that says "So-and-so can't really be allergic to walnuts. They just don't like them. I'll prove it by sneaking some into the next batch of cookies I bring to the office potluck."

I'm mean, I'm fortunate in that I don't seem to have any delibating sensitivities to scent, but I am certainly repelled by certain fragrances, especially when they're applied with a heavy hand, and that's bad enough.
